Edit: LOL then they double down on the trolling…
I haven’t avoided doing any research. I am not going to waste my time demonstrating to you why you are wrong.
If the system was broken journalists wouldn’t be able to access the information you say is impossible to obtain because the “system is broken” you absolute genius.
You are wrong, I never called you a loser, but I won’t disagree with your choice of words to describe yourself.
Projection at its best.
Go upstairs and cry to your mom about it.
